All The Riches Of Royalty - Poem by Fallen Too Far

The king sat in his silver bathtub one morningAnd he realized, as he soaked in the soft bubblesThat you can not rule your kingdom from a silver bathtub

So he did what any other king in a silver bathtub would do-He got out.

Looking down, he realized that he was standing on his silver rugAnd as he dried his arms, he considered that perhapsYou cannot rule a kingdom from a silver bathroom rug

So he slowly stepped off of the rug, and watched the patterns of his feetDisappear into the silver carpet.

The king walked over to his window and looked over his kingdom.It lay below him, sparkling in all it's silver beautyAnd as he watched, it seemed to come alive with peopleShining like silver in the warm sun

A tear rolled down his quietly down his cheek And he pondered that Maybe, just maybeBeing a king is not all that they say it is

I have to agree with Scarlett. I think all of us can lose sight of something as important as the welfare of others because we are looking for something that seems very important to us. Thanks for the heads up! Lol! Love you! ! *hugs*

Funny, how we go through life, working hard as we can to attain a certain goal -
money, wealth, power, love, whatever it is - and then, lo and behold! It is not at all what it was cracked up to be! How astute you are to see this, how clever to write so well about it! A favorite for me. Scarlett
